The Orioles got just what they needed: a solid, low stress win to take the series and sole possession of first.
The Orioles needed a win tonight to remain in first place and to secure a series win against the Red Sox. They got it in fine fashion as the offense, led by Adam Jones, knocked around former O’s prospect Eduardo Rodriguez and Tyler Wilson pitched the game of his professional career to get the win.
Tyler Wilson’s dominant performance on the mound is without a doubt the story of tonight’s game. Wilson has been suffering from Brian Matusz Syndrome since May 11th making it tough to have any confidence in him.
